Volunteers QB Brian Maurer a game-time decision against No. 1 Alabama

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- Tennessee coach Jeremy Pruitt said quarterback Brian Maurer's status for the Volunteers' Saturday matchup at No. 1 Alabama will be a game-time decision after the freshman suffered a concussion last week.

Pruitt had said Monday that Maurer had taken some reps at the previous night's practice and added that "he's going to be fine, I'm sure." Pruitt updated Maurer's situation after Tennessee's Wednesday practice.

Maurer dove and landed headfirst at the end of a 13-yard scramble late in the first half of a 20-10 victory over Mississippi State.
